The Crusades were called because of religious devotion but the call was answered because to the desire for political and economic gain.

A call went out for soldiers to take Jerusalem from the Seljuk Turks.  

Many second and third sons answered the call. In the Holy Land they could carve out principalities and become Lords. In Western Europe the land was all taken. The call was answer by most Crusaders for dreams of political and economic gain.

The Eastern Roman Empire had appealed for help became of the amount of land and control that they had lost to the Seljuk Turks.  

The agreement with the Pope was that the Crusaders would liberate not only Jerusalem but the lands lost to the control of the Turks.  

When the Crusaders liberated the land they kept the land for themselves. This showed that the reasons that the Crusaders answered the call was not religious devotion but economic greed.

Haha, hope this helps. <3 !

The Black Death of 1348 to 1350
Citation: C N Trueman "The Black Death Of 1348 To 1350"
historylearningsite.co.uk. The History Learning Site, 5 Mar 2015. 19 Apr 2018.

In Medieval England, the Black Death was to kill 1.5 million people out of an estimated total of 4 million people between 1348 and 1350. No medical knowledge existed in Medieval England to cope with the disease. After 1350, it was to strike England another six times by the end of the century. Understandably, peasants were terrified at the news that the Black Death might be approaching their village or town.
The Black Death is the name given to a deadly plague (often called bubonic plague, but is more likely to be pneumonic plague) which was rampant during the Fourteenth Century. It was believed to have arrived from Asia in late 1348 and caused more than one epidemic in that century – though its impact on English society from 1348 to 1350 was terrible. No amount of medical knowledge could help England when the plague struck. It was also to have a major impact on England’s social structure which lead to the Peasants Revolt of 1381.

What subregion of australia and oceania is undergoing ethnic and political conflict?
Rudik [331]

The subregion that of Australia and Oceania that is undergoing ethnic and political conflict is ''Pacific Islands of Oceania''.

Long regarded as peaceful havens and wonderful holiday destinations, the last few decades has seen increasing conflicts between different tribes and ethnicities usually due to powerful political reasons.

One of the most famous recent examples was the 2,000 coup in Fiji. This resulted in lawlessness and loot for couple of days and resulted in millions of dollars of worth of damages and tens of murders.

In the Solomon islands, we saw an armed civil coup that resulted in a civil war and the displacement of 25,000 people.
